Death of John Wild/Wilde 1864 - 1871

[BONGSMAN]

I have been looking for some time for the death of John Wild/Wilde possibly in Hulme, Manchester or Ordsall, Salford. The last fact I have of him alive is a rent payment for 30, Sutherland Street, Hulme, Manchester in 1864 and the 1871 Census showing his wife as WIDOW in Ordsall, Salford.

Thanks

Hi,

Welcome to RootsChat

Could you give us the the birth year and place of birth for John Wild/e please?

Equally it would help if you post the details of the last census you have for him along with his wife's name.

The more info we have the better

Hello JJen,

Thanks for the welcome.

John Wild/Wilde Born Oct. 1817 in Over Darwen, Lancashire. The last census 1861 at 30, Sutherland Street, Hulme. Married 1854 in Darwen to Ellen Moorcroft and only child Henry James. The 1871 census shows his widow and son living at 18, South Wilton Place, Ordsall, Salford, but the transcription is wrong as it states surname as ADEL, close examination of poor image shows WILD.

Hi John,

The 1861 has John Wild's age as 30, however the John Wild you have born in 1817 would be 44 in 1861 

Perhaps the ages on the census is incorrect as John is recorded as being 35 on marriage in 1854 and Ellen as being 30.

Hi Rosie99,

Thanks for your info. but I think Ellen's birth in Cheadle is wrong. I have her born in Mawdesley, Lancashire.

Hi Rosie99,

Thanks for your info. but I think Ellen's birth in Cheadle is wrong. I have her born in Mawdesley, Lancashire.

The 1861 census states Cheadle, Cheshire with John born Maudsley.
